The discovery, function and development of the variable number tandem repeats in different Mycobacterium species.

Critical reviews in microbiology - 1 Sept 2016

Sun Zhaogang, Li Weimin, Xu Shaofa, Huang Hairong

Abstract excerpt

The method of genotyping by variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) facilitates the epidemiological studies of different Mycobacterium species worldwide. Until now, the VNTR method is not fully understood, for example, its discovery, function and classification. The inconsistent nomenclature and terminology of VNTR is especially confusing. In this review, we first describe in detail the VNTRs in Mycobacterium...
